The correct options are
B Coordination number of
A is
6.
C Formula of the solid is
AB3.
It can be seen from the figure that
A atoms are present at the corners of a cube.
There are 8 A atoms in one unit cell and each one contributes one eight to the unit cell.
Thus, the number of A atoms in one unit cell is 8×18=1
B atoms are present at the edge-centres of the cube.
There are 12 B atoms in one unit cell and each one contributes one fourth to the unit cell.
Thus, the number of B atoms in one unit celll is 12×14=3
Hence, the formula of the solid is AB3.
The coordination number of A is 6, as each A is surrounded by 6 B atoms.
Thus, the statement A and D are incorrect, whereas statements B and C are correct.
